Over the last 19 games, the Astros have a .684 winning percentage. To reach .500, Houston needs to play .692 against Washington, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and Chicago.

The question is familiar, but the question is simple on this Sunday afternoon.

Will Houston finish at .500?

For the record, the Astros are 10-2 against Pittsburgh, 3-1 versus Washington and 10-5 when playing Chicago.

It’s still a stretch, but to boil it down, the Astros need to win each remaining series to get there. For the record, the team has won five of its last six series and the sixth was a four-game split with the Dodgers.
